Hot take: No console with significant connectivity requirements can ever be retro. That’s pretty much everything in the last twenty years.

I was going to quibble with you regarding the OG Xbox and PS2, but then I looked up their release dates. I feel so goddamn old.

Not until graphics are significantly different enough, anyway. Arkham Asylum could pass as a modern game with a lower budget. No PS2, OG Xbox, or Gamecube game can be mistaken for a modern game, though.
